What's up everyone? Day 2? Day 3, but my day 2 of the expo. It's Saturday anyways, meant to be the busiest day. We're just about to go off now. I am wearing an Alphalete t-shirt that is launching soon, pair of jeans, and some Adidas. People always wear like stringers and, you know, vests and stuff and tracksuit bottoms to an expo, but you don't really do much exercising, so this is like my casual gear. This is what I prefer wearing. We're gonna go off now, we're gonna chill at the booth, we're gonna have a good day, and today is also like the after-party which I'm really looking forward to, I'm not gonna lie. On top of that, I also got a video uploaded, it's scheduled, it's gonna go live in a couple hours, and that is like the biggest relief for me. Like, I know it sounds strange, but like when I go a few days without making a video, I hate it, and then when I finally get to publish one, it just feels so amazing. It feels like a weight has been taken off my shoulders. I always say that YouTube, no doubt, most stressful social media, but it is the most rewarding. Editing and putting together a video is like painting a picture, and then when you post it, it's like hanging it on the wall of a Gallery. What's going on, guys? So the expo is well underway and I'm back with Ali. It is just coming up to midday, 12:00, and and I actually have a video going live then as well. So I'm excited to see your response to the first Germany vlog. And also, you know the drill, movement discount is Rob Lipsett. I'm gonna link that down below in the description box. Be sure to check it out. They're like my favorite watches. They go with everything. Plan is today is like the busiest day by far, so I want to meet as many people as I can because that is what I'm here for. And I've always said that one of my main missions with this channel is to connect with as many people across the globe as possible. So that's what I want to do. Today is so busy, it's absolutely packed. The energy is crazy. I just gotta work on not losing my voice because that happens every single expo, so I gotta tone it down a little bit and not get so excited. But anyways, let's go enjoy the expo. We're getting a bit of fresh air from the expo because it can get a little bit claustrophobic, so we're just taking a breather and then we're gonna go in and finish off the rest of the day. And it is always so sunny wherever I go. I swear to God, I get lucky with the weather. Let's see what's going on up here. All right, so we came outside to get a bit of fresh air, and Germany, not a bad show. The sun came out and everyone obviously had the same idea, so this is kind of like where everyone's coming out to chill, sit in the sun. But we're gonna go in now, finish off the day strong. I'm gonna head over to Myprotein booth for a little bit more, and then we're gonna relax and get on with the day. Katherine, what's up? I'm here with your boy Ben Christian at the FIBO Expo. This is just a quick little reminder to get yourself to the gym, stay at it. Be consistent and kick some ass. Keep it real. Have a great weekend. Peace. Alright guys, so taking a little bit of a break from the Nocco booth, going over to the Myprotein booth to see a good old friend of mine who's been on the channel before. Hey! What's up, man? What's up, bro? Great to meet you, man. Thank you very much. Yeah, yeah. I've been looking up to you. Oh man, thank you so much. Well, if I can encourage someone else to adopt a more positive outlook in life, I've done my job. Okay guys, we're doing a quick Q&A for my channel here, so ask us some questions, we'll answer it, whatever you like. Do you go together to make a video? Soon. We're doing it right now, bro. It's happening. Who has better hair? Brad. Brad. Is that a question, bro? We both got our own style. Yeah, yeah, we both got our own style. And we're both very proud of it. Yeah, yeah. It's the most important thing. If you're happy with what you have, that's the thing. It's blonde versus brunette, you know, so we both bring something to the table. Exactly. Will you join Ryan to some festivals in the Netherlands? Oh yeah, bro. Yes. Yeah, Joey D is actually coming down to go to the festival this summer. So sorry, festivals, we're going to Ibiza together. Yeah, yeah, me, Joe, and Ryan, we're all going to go to Ibiza and like we're going to bring like some videographers as well. So we're going to make it the best series ever for YouTube. Whose biceps is bigger? Okay, give us a go here. You got this crazy Yeah, yeah, I got 4 feet. I don't have a feet, man. I just have like one body. So it's up to you guys. Whoever buys stuff you think is better. Alright guys, so I'm with someone you all know. We collabed like what, 2 months ago, 3 months ago? We're just 2 guys who, we're very similar. Alright, so when we met each other, we just hit it off immediately. So it's really cool that the world has brought us back together. So we're just backstage at the Myprotein booth and the expo's finishing up. You can tell my voice is going a little bit, so we're going to conclude this expo footage here. I'll catch up with you guys later. Yo, what's going on everyone? So update is I'm having a little bit of alone time. I'm gonna take a walk around Cologne. And now people think that like I'm a really extroverted guy, which I am, but I do also really value some alone time. And that's why even at home I go on a lot of walks and listen to podcasts and stuff like that. Hey, here's some Nocco people! How we doing guys? Hi! And You know, at an expo you're constantly surrounded with people, you're constantly with other people, even sharing a room with someone else. So I'm gonna do a little walk on my own, have some alone time, and I also need to get a drink of water and maybe some strepsils would be nice too. Ooh, it is a lovely day as well. It's like such a mild evening. So that's what I'm gonna do for about an hour and then I'll check in with you guys in a bit. So expo's over and now we are just all getting ready in the same room together. That's Miles Lysk, by the way. He's just like a professional good-looking guy for a living. That's kind of just what he does. We're gonna go for dinner now. We're gonna dress kind of fancy because we're probably gonna have a few drinks at dinner and head out afterwards. And there's nothing— there's nothing that boosts testosterone more than 3 lads getting ready and glammed up together in the same room. So that's what's going down now. All right, so we finished the Germany trip off strong. We had an epic night out with an unbelievable group of people, knocked out the final expo day, and then I spent Monday chilling around Cologne, getting some cool photos, and pretty much catching my breath. I want to say a quick thank you Nocco for the whole weekend. More trips to places I've never been before planned with them too. But most importantly, I want to say thank you to everyone I met this weekend. I appreciate you all more than you know. So I flew from Cologne to Dublin, got home, got a meal in, slept for 6 hours if even, and then returned to the airport. Hence why I look like ass in this vlog. This man needs to catch up on his beauty sleep. I had to go back to the airport as I had a meeting scheduled in London with a company about something I've never done before, and it has nothing to do with fitness. You know what they say, keep moving or get left behind. All right, people, what's going on? Welcome back to another vlog. We are back in the airport again. I was here about 10 hours ago. I don't think I've ever done that before, but you know, no excuses. I have to go over to London, uh, for a meeting. It should be interesting. And you know, I didn't want to actually do this, to be honest. Like, I wanted to go home. I want to stay at home for a while. But sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do, and you just gotta get things done. And come on, like, I'm not gonna complain about a little day trip to London. Shut up, Rob. So, uh, yeah, I've decided to vlog today, bring you guys along with me, hopefully see some cool sights. And yeah, get it started. One thing I was quite impressed with by Ryanair is I left some shopping on my flight from Germany yesterday, and they managed to hold on to it for me and give it back to today. So that's already started off the day on a good note. Hey, so I'm in the London Underground now. I'm gonna take this 2 stops to Oxford Circus. This is Oxford Circus. So a bit of an update, I just got off at Oxford Circus. I'm walking to this meeting now. I'm going to try get get this meeting over and done with as fast as possible because I'm in London for like less than 12 hours. I'm also gonna do the meeting and see what I can tell you because I know a lot of it is under wraps and that they want me to keep it on the DL. But either way, yes, I want to get done. I just saw there's like so many cool shops. There's like River Island, the London Nike store. I just saw some cool sushi places. So hopefully we'll have a nice day in London and the weather weather is definitely on our side as well. So anyways, I am going to do this businessy stuff and try to get it over and done with as fast as possible and then catch up with you guys in a bit. The update, basically I'm out of that meeting. It went on for so much longer than I thought it would, but it's fine. It was a productive meeting and it was definitely good company to talk to. And I had like a nice little day in London anyways. Like, it's such good weather and I'm on like, I don't know, some, some river. Either way though, I have to go to the airport now apparently, so I'm gonna make my way to London Underground. I'm gonna go home now. I'm probably just gonna chill in the airport because the last thing I want is to miss my flight because I would just totally mess up my week. So let's make our way back now. And I'm actually getting a little bit better at navigating around London. I just noticed I need a haircut. But anyways, Platform 1 is where I was told to go. And I have to say, wherever the hell I am in London, it is so nice for a walk. Like, I'd really like to walk around here for a while. I don't know if you can see the view, and it's like a really hot day, hence why I'm in a t-shirt. Here we go, guys. Quick topic I want to touch on, and it is the fact that we hit 200,000 subscribers today, or even last night I think we hit it. But either way, I just want to say thank you to each and every one of you. I genuinely love my subscribers. I know that from even just meeting them in person. It's just such an insane feeling that I know I have this army, this support team behind me every step of the way, and it's just super cool. And I hope that you guys get something from this channel, be it information, motivation, inspiration, or if it just makes you do more. So seriously, thank you. Oh my God, it feels good to be home. Unpacked the bags, slept for a good 12 hours, and now I'm just about to go for a walk, clear the head a little bit, because there is just so much crazy things happening in the next couple of months, so much huge decisions, and that I have to make. All good, you know, nothing's wrong. Sometimes I wish I could tell you guys everything, but some stuff is literally confidential, and the rest, I don't like talking about things until they're completely done. You guys know that. But sometimes I wish I could like ask for your opinion, like you could write down in the comment section everything. It's crazy because like I've been meeting so much subscribers last weekend, even in the gym, everything. And it's honestly just like this crazy family that we've built. But I'm gonna finish up this vlog here because I'm pretty sure it's gonna be a long one. Thank you so much for watching. Some crazy stuff coming in the next couple of months that I cannot wait to share with you guys. Keep it real. I'll see you in the next video. I'm out here. Peace.
